This book covers the most recent development of enzymatic organic synthesis, with particular focus on the use of isolated enzymes. It is organized into one introductory chapter dealing with the characteristics of enzymes as catalysts, and five chapters dealing with different types of chemical transformations. Methods for enzyme immobilization and stabilizaton, the use of enzymes in extreme environments, and the alteration of enzyme properties by chemical modification and site-directed mutagenesis for synthetic purposes are covered.

Adaptive Wireless Transceivers provides the reader with abroad overview of near-instantaneously adaptive transceivers in thecontext of TDMA, CDMA and OFDM systems. The adaptive transceiversexamined employ powerful turbo codecs, turbo equalisers andspace-time codecs, equipping the reader with a future-prooftechnological road map. It demonstrates that adaptive transceiversare capable of mitigating the channel quality fluctuations of thewireless channel as a lower-complexity alternative to space-timecoding. By contrast, if the higher complexity of multipletransmitters and multiple receiver-assisted systems is deemedacceptable, the advantages of adaptability erode. * Provides an in-depth introduction to channel equalisers andKalman filtering and discusses the associated complexity versusperformance trade-offs * Introduces wideband near-instantaneously adaptive transceiversand studies their performance both with and without turbo channelcoding * Describes how to optimise adaptive modulation mode switchingand highlights a range of practical considerations * Introduces neural network based channel equalisers anddiscusses Radial Basis Function (RBF) assisted equalisers embeddedinto adaptive modems supported by turbo channel coding and turbochannel equalisation * Employs the above adaptive principles also in the context ofCDMA and OFDM transceivers and discusses the pros and cons ofspace-time coding versus adaptive modulation Researchers, advanced students and practising development engineersworking in wireless communications will all find this valuable textan informative read.
